iQOO's next crop of smartphones is tipped to launch with the highest-end chipset currently available from Qualcomm - however, they are also believed to belong to the brand's sub-flagship Neo line. Nevertheless, at least one of them is projected to launch with the latest energy-saving display technology, fast charging and a 50MP main camera.

Samsung has listed the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (2024) early on the Samsung Ireland website. It confirms some of the tablet's key specs and storage variants but doesn't reveal its price, which is rumoured to start at around €429.

Like most new smartphones released in March 2024, the Nothing Phone (2a) has a metallic mid-frame and a Gorilla Glass-coated display. However, it also has a back covered in supposedly lower-end plastic rather than glass. Nevertheless, it makes for “impressive” result in an online test of its durability.

A video posted on Qualcomm's YouTube channel confirms the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4's hardware and software codenames (Pakala and Sun). It also gives us a glimpse at the Qualcomm Reference Device being use to test the October-bound SoC.

Noted X leaker @Tech_Reve opines Samsung could launch this year's Galaxy Z Flip6 with an Exynos 2400. If true, this will be the first Galaxy Z Flip device to not launch with a Snapdragon SoC.

Realme is now rumored to launch its first Android smartphone with the new Snapdragon 7 Plus Gen 3 (or 7+ Gen 3) SoC, a >5,000mAh battery and fast charging. In other words, it is slated to land as a clone of the upcoming OnePlus Ace 3V (or Nord CE4) - then again, it might look different and also have an exclusive edge over its mid-range rival.

The Galaxy S23 FE is targeted for Samsung fans and supposed to offer an especially attractive price-performance ratio. But some doubts came up in our test, whether fan considerations really played any role here. We summarize everything again for you here.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S10+ might be announced at Galaxy Unpacked this year. Its battery (codenamed EB-BX828ABE) has just shown up on the SafetyKorea Certification Website.

Honor has now officially presented a flagship for its latest series of Snapdragon 8 Gen 3-powered Android smartphones in not 1 but 2 forms: Ultimate and RSR. They are largely identical, except that the latter is a first-gen Porsche Design-branded special edition. Its bespoke customizations and industry-first upgrades have pushed its price to heights heretofore unknown to Honor fans.

The latest generation of Infinix' Note-series Android smartphones has a new top-end 40 Pro Plus 5G variant that comes with a MagCharge wireless charger in the box as well as a 100W Multi-Speed FastCharge power brick. It forms part of a line-up with 120Hz AMOLED displays driven by Brand-first MediaTek silicon across the board.

A rumour from Naver says the 2025-bound Galaxy S25 will supposedly feature a 6.36-inch screen. The change comes four generations after the Galaxy S20 debuted with a 6.2-inch screen instead of the 6.1-inch panel found on the Galaxy S10.

Sony's Xperia smartphones occupy a specific niche as one of the very few 21:9 aspect ratio devices in the Android world. However, their days as unusually tall, narrow handsets are numbered, according to a new leak. The upcoming 1 VI flagship is rumored to keep the typical Xperia camera hump, yet may launch as something more like a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra in terms of footprint nonetheless.

OnePlus has officially announced that its upcoming Ace 3V will be a world first, in that it will introduce a new Snapdragon 7-series SoC to the Android smartphone market. The chipset is touted to pack the "core advantages" of its top-end 8-series counterparts. They include "flagship AI capabilities" alongside potentially segment-leading power-efficiency and gaming proficiency.

We reviewed the Samsung Galaxy Tab Active5 a few days back and had the opportunity to see for ourselves whether the robust 8-inch tablet with a removable battery is suitable for consumers as well.

This year, Samsung's flagship is once again a benchmark for the entire industry in many respects. But other manufacturers are also preparing to launch strong products that are expected to give the Galaxy S24 Ultra a run for its money. We provide you with an overview.

OnePlus is currently gearing up to launch the Nord CE4 as its next Android smartphone for markets such as Europe. The OEM has shown the device off from the back, but not the front, thus far; however, a famous leaker now purports to have spoiled further teasers using the Chinese version of the same device, the Ace 3V. The new tip might also confirm the presence of a brand signature feature normally reserved for higher-end devices.

It seems the Realme 12 series of mid-range Android smartphones has one more thing to add before the end of 2024, and that would be its final, possibly most affordable, variant. The 12x is all but confirmed to land in a new tip that hints at specs such as the same SoC as its higher-end sibling.

A release without any fanfare: Lenovo has released the new Lenovo ThinkPad X13 Gen 5. The newest model sports Intel Core Ultra, also known as Meteor Lake. The X13 G5 will be available both with U and H CPUs, but it appears there are no more AMD options or OLED screens planned.

Vivo's upcoming flagship foldable, the Vivo X Fold3 Pro, has been spotted on AnTuTu. It packs a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC, 16 GB RAM, 1 TB storage and a 120 Hz screen. Rumours suggest it will be launched sometime in the coming weeks.

Ross Young, a well-renowned display analyist, has confirmed the Pixel Fold 2 is due to launch later this year. Both its primary and cover displays will be remarkably larger than the original.

Nothing has just released its latest, and most affordable-grade yet, Android smartphone via its own web-store. The "powerfully unique" new Phone (2a) is offered with same-day shipping, not to mention twelve months' worth of access to a paid AI "answers engine" for a limited time.

In our test of the Galaxy S24 Plus, the Samsung phone boasted a modern look, high-quality materials and powerful hardware. In our test verdict on the Galaxy phone, you can read about which advantages the Plus model has over the Galaxy S24.

The Samsung Galaxy A55 has been announced alongside the Galaxy A35. It features three rear cameras (50 MP + 12 MP + 5 MP), a 5,000 mAh battery and an Exynos 1480 SoC. It goes on sale now starting at €479 ($524).

The OnePlus Nord 5 is projected to slot into the sub-$500 tier of the new Android smartphone market on its launch. However, it is also rumored to have the same wired charging speed (and extra-large battery size) as its $499 and up counterpart on this date. Now, a new leak seems to confirm that premium perk for the allegedly upcoming affordable option.

Xiaomi claims to usher in a whole new future of mobile photography in India, with reservations for its new flagship smartphones the 14 and 14 Ultra just about to begin. The top-end Ultra variant packs the newest 1-inch rear camera technology in its quad-lensed hump, although both devices come with Leica branding. They are set to start at under ~$750, although that is cheap compared to some other regions.

The Samsung Galaxy A55 is only a few days away but that hasn’t stopped one Russian reviewer from posting a full review of the device on the Chinese platform Bilibili. According to this preliminary analysis, the Galaxy A55 handily outperforms the Galaxy A54 thanks to its Exynos 1480 SoC which also brings a new Xclipse 530 GPU from AMD.

The Nord 3 (OnePlus' 'main' mid-range Android phone for the international market) is now thought to get a successor that might do well due to the fact it might have the same extra-large battery and flagship-grade fast charging of the new 12R. Then again, its wildly updated look might turn out to be a polarizing issue in 2024.

Even though the Xiaomi Poco X6 Pro and its Poco X6 sibling model share the 6.67-inch form factor and are both midrange smartphones, the addition of the "Pro" in the name makes the Poco X6 Pro the more powerful smartphone that also brings more extensive equipment.

The Vivo X Fold3 line is thought to launch with a series-first (relatively) affordable option as well as a flagship on the bleeding edge of foldable smartphone technology thought to include high-end Samsung OLED, more RAM and a bigger battery. Now, its approximate launch date has allegedly been revealed in a new social media leak.

A South Korean media outlet reports that yields for Samsung's 3 nm process is less than 60%. Samsung confirmed earlier that next year's Exynos 2500 SoC will be manufactured on it. Unspecified products from other companies like Nvidia and Qualcomm are also slated to use it.

The Vivo X Fold3 Pro is touted to launch as a device with improved displays compared to those of its already impressive predecessor in 2024. Now, this prediction may be corroborated with more specific values, while its battery may be rated for up to 1,000mAh more in capacity compared to the X Fold2. In addition, the 3 Pro is now tipped to launch as Vivo's first ever 1TB foldable smartphone.

The Galaxy Z Flip6 and Fold6 are projected to become Samsung's most advanced, most premium clamshell and non-clamshell foldable Android smartphones in mid-2024. Now, it seems both devices are right on track with that timeline, having registered their batteries (all 4 of them) with regulators.

Infinix has become linked to a new Android smartphone, one with a potentially second-gen gamer esthetic and a different MediaTek Dimensity processor. The alleged new GT-series device might also launch with a new version of XOS based on Android and have a decent mid-range amount of RAM.

The Zenfone 11 Ultra is due to be unleashed in mid-March 2024. However, more of its specs have seemingly fallen into place via leaks beforehand. This latest tip allegedly confirms a charging option besides USB-C, and also purports to reveal its appearance in advance.

Meizu's last major announcement involved its intention to ditch "conventional" smartphones in favor of AI - however, its next serves to introduce a Pro version of its current Android flagship. It sports a clean, modern, IP68-rated design with a flat, high-res display and a battery of just over 5,000mAh in capacity.

Realme has just chased its 12+ launch event with an announcement that its vanilla counterpart will join it on the Android smartphone market soon. It will do so in India as that country's latest "Luxury Watch Design" device with an on-trend flat display and round camera hump. On that note, it will also debut with one of the biggest faux-premium main cameras out there.

A new rumour on X has revealed Samsung's mobile AP breakdown for 2025. The high-end Galaxy S series will exclusively use Exynos chips, the Galaxy Z series with stick with Qualcomm and the Galaxy A series will mix things up with MediaTek and Exynos.

A Lenovo laptop codenamed Lenovo 83ED has shown up on Geekbench with Qualcomm's upcoming Snapdragon X Elite CPU. It scores 1,682 and 1,1392 points in Geekbench 6.2's single and multi-core tests.

Realme's launch event for the 12 Plus (or 12+) as a new mid-range Android smartphone of today (February 29, 2024) might have suggested that the addition of a vanilla 12 might be redundant at this point. However, it seems that might not be the case, as that device's model number has appeared on Geekbench, with a different SoC to its new Plus counterpart.

The Realme 12 Plus (or 12+) is touted to elevate its segment of the Android smartphone market with the same SoC as its series' flagships to drive a flat 120Hz display that, moreover, has a feature suspiciously like that of OnePlus' latest top-end device. The 12+ also debuts with a new member of the Sony LYTIA family of 50MP main cameras.

Renowned leaker @OnLeaks has shown off the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip6 via new renders. Its design is identical to its predecessor, complete with a 3.4-inch cover screen and two camera sensors.
